Nice people never finish last. They always emerge as the winner in the end. The problem in today`s world is that most people try to take shortcuts which at times is either illegal or unethical. These people might get the desired result but in the long run, face serious repercussions.
Unlike these people, nice guys always measure the steps they take, make sure they proceed in the right direction and no one is harmed by their actions. They dedicate themselves to everything they do and make sure their actions yield positive results. The whole process might take a little time but the end result will always be fruitful.

It is an interesting topic that we have been given here. The unique feature is that it can be comprehended in different manners. One of them could be that a nice guy essentially defines a person who plays by the book and is morally and ethically astute. He stands by his ideals and principles come what may. Such approach to life may be beautiful and inspiring but in today's cut throat world where survival of the fittest mantra holds supreme being on top may mean compromising on those beliefs. Those who adapt will prosper while those who don't shall perish.
Thank you for this opportunity to speak.

It is not necessary at a nice guy always finish last if he does last that is only because he does things with perfection. I am quite against the motion because nice guys does not mean that he does things very slowly with perfection rather it means that he is nice as he is smart, he know the approach to be followed. So I would say it does not matter to finish last or first for a nice guy rather matter is how perfectionaly he does complete for a given duration.

Yes, I agree with the statement that "NICE GUYS FINISH LAST. "Generally, in most of the cases, nice guys finish late but not late. They finish it late to make the work more effective and interesting.
Even though they are late to work they feel happy to discover something new to the society within time.

Hello, Today's generation is very smart in taking decisions and also has very high potential, confidence, self-belief, try to go fast to reach to the top of the world. But sometimes it could face large implications and due to this confidence losses and there in mind we think that if he/she loses they get nervous, depression by this they fear of losing and they reach at last and the one who takes smart decision and think with proper way and stay in positive thoughts then he/she can win and finish at last or first. In race, there, the one who comes first is winner for world but if someone comes last he thinks there he/she loose and the game is over. There are so many people who are not having all qualities but they develop, train themselves with positive thoughts and win. If someone who is the last rank in previous competition does hard work, thinks where he looses focus and grows with positive thoughts then the last on also comes first. So the nice guy finishes last by proving himself as first.

Nice guy always have a second plan if first plan is not going in his/her favour. That's why nice guys finish last but come up with better result.

When nice guy finishing in last minute it is OK, he is doing thing in first time itself, there will be less chance to make error, but some people doing thing very fast without meaning full result, its no use. Without plan and thinking will do work but no proper direction.

It all depends how we all define the word "Nice" here. It is not automatically implied that "Nice" people are always ethical or speak true or do good things. " Sometimes flattery people are also termed Nice people. Who cares!
I totally do not agree the statement "Nice Guys Finish Last" in contrary. Nice guys get things done easily and quicker than any other can. They know how to handle people and to develop relationships.
Whatever. This is what I think.
Healthy comments are welcomed.

I'm not preferring that "nice guy finish last", first of all we have to know what is the meaning of nice in here. #nice like to be responsible toward his work what he has done, or another hand in nature. Nice guy always complete their work systematically and correct. Doesn't matter last but in a giving duration. That is mine, and the other key point. His work is better than another.

Hello everyone.
The given topic is "nice-guys-finish-last".
In my point of view, firstly, the nice word here refers to the one who is truly responsible towards his work with full dedication, confidence, courage. I know that's very easy to say because the young generation is fed up with all this. They always want to apply the shortcuts to reach at the top of the world in this rat race.
In our childhood, we all surely listen to the story of rabbit and tortoise. In this story, rabbit loses the race because of overconfidence and tortoise wins as here tortoise is nice guys.
The major problem lies in the mindset of the people. This only words "nice guys finish last" can't drastically change the mindset of the people and at the end, I only want to say do the work for your satisfaction not to satisfy the others.
